Abstract
We prove a homogenization theorem for non-convex functionals depending on vector-valued functions, defined on Sobolev spaces with respect to oscillating measures. The proof combines the use of the localization methods of Γ-convergence with a 'discretization' argument, which allows to link the oscillating energies to functionals defined on a single Lebesgue space. and to state the hypothesis of p-connectedness of the underlying periodic measure in a handy way. © American Institute of Mathematical Sciences.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
